Thx, i tried faster Fix, set it to Germany, but nothing happens.

when i use Navigon or even GoogleMaps shouldnt be there the gps sign (a circle with pulsing point in the middle when searching and steady point when gps fix) in the top bar?

this sign does not appear any longer :confused:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
It doesn't feel slower. Also benchmarks are almost the same. Maybe even a bit in favour of kk2.

Using Siyah 2.2p.

But not many visible changes, some icons and little things.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
Hmm... are you sure you turned GPS on? :p

Anyways, it could be down to the kernel. So try using a different one to your current kernel.

Ever going back to VR 3.0 from CM7, I have been dropping calls on occasion. This appears to always coincide with a data synch. Any ideas on how to fix? Reflash my modem?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fischerben:
hi

why can't i use Tegrak overclock after i updated to 3.0. now it says that the device is not available.

is it because the modem isn't rooted?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
Nothing to do with the modem lol :rolleyes:

Download either SetCPU or Voltage Control from the market.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fischerben:
what would setcpu do, i have it already?

ahh, i just saw that it has been changed so i can edit voltage :)

Changelog for 2.3.6 is here, which is weird since Samsung doesn't really release changelogs.

Android 2.3.6 Update Changelog:

Lockscreen hang bug fixed

Increase of the HSPA conectivity speed

Security & Performance improvments

Faster booting-up

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chrisjcks:
And yet unbranded UK phones are still on 2.3.4! (officially)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
I'm unconvinced with 2.3.6. From the top of my head, it is mainly a graphics driver security update, for a gpu we don't have :p

Let's wait until the dust settles and the placebo effect wears off?

I am not too sure samsung will be putting too much into gingerbread right now anyway, given the obvious next step.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
I'd reflash kernel and modem. KI4 is good for me as a modem
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Yep :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] newHere:):
pulser_g2,

is it possible please? :)

I managed to get rid of my Problem with GPS:

i reflashed villainrom 3.0 and everything was fine...

thx for all the tips!

Update to what? If you mean 2.3.6 read Pulsers post above. If you mean ICS stop trolling!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fischerben:
i have just updated to villain rom 3.0 , but i would like to try a different modem (zsjpg modem) , how do i downgrade cwm so i can flash zip again :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
What?

You should still have CWM recovery, so just flash the modem zip there.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fischerben:
Yes i still have CWM but it is never version,and I have heard that there is som problem with flashing zip... when i try to flash a zip it says i have to use edify scriptning
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
Can you link me to where you found the modem?

The name of it sounds like it might be for SGS, not SGS2.

Communicated from a Galaxy far far away via an XDA premium quality neurotransmitter.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Yup check that's the right zip!

The SGS2 came out AFTER edify was the only script type to be used. So that zip is from before the release of the SGS2.

I'm new to roms and was wondering what this rom really do? I haven't installed any custom roms and only have rooted my phone to get certain apps that needed root for example chainfire3D. Would be nice for someone to help me out.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
If you are already rooted then just boot to recovery and flash VillainROM after wiping data, cache and dalvik cache.

If not then you needt to flash a cf-root kernel in Odin first before you can flash VillainROM trouble free.

I have a strange problem.

after updating to VR3.0, my phone losing the signal and i don't have any "service".

flashing modem or kernel fixing this but after several hours (usually when roaming), the signal is lost again.

i'm trying 2 different modems: BOKJ1 and my carrier's modem (version JHKG2).

any idias?

btw, now i see there is a new rom version from my carrier. i'll pull out the modem and flash it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Try that. This sounds exactly like radio

Hey hey,

Just jumping on the latest security/privacy wave, will there be a version of VR released removing Carrier IQ or is it not present in Villain ROMs?

http://lifehacker.com/5863895/carri...everything-on-your-phone-and-how-to-remove-it

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Eddiemc:
I'm not running villain, but you can download this app and check it:

xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17612559&postcount=110

On CheckROM it didn't come up with anything, so I reckon perhaps when the source is "clean" samsung leaks it will not be installed, vs when the carriers have tainted it before release..

Feel free to enlighten me if I'm wrong:-)

Sent from my mind using telepathy
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] WiGgLr:
Pretty sure this is only a problem for phones sold in the US. The concept of Carrier IQ would be illegal in EU law anyway.

I think that as Villainrom is based on EU firmware, CIQ is not in it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Techneut:
I've looked at it, and came to the conclusion that

Carrier IQ is NOT present on this ROM!

Fortunately...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mccune:
Already posted about CIQ over a week ago (HERE). We don't have to worry about that.

So remove your aluminium hats now :cool:

I can't seem to get bln to work, running vr3.0 and siyah 2.2i. I know it's probably kernel related but if anyone here has an idea please do tell. I've tried everything I know!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
BLN is supported in the ROM and would think in Siyah's kernel too. Have you got the app to use it? Can't remember name as don't use it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kingofthebraves:
bln control, yes I have it and its been enabled. also tried testing it and it works but not when I receive a missed call or sms. I used to have no porblem with this whatsoever.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Can you try with Siyah 2.3 as just looked and he has a change to BLN in his recent changelog so maybe there was an issue with it and hopefully it'll work ok. It's worth trying.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kingofthebraves:
Just flashed 2.3 and it still doesnt work :( Although something strange happened, I got an email and the BLN worked. Wasn't able to reproduce it with sms though. Tried handcent and go sms already.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
Hmm, that's weird. You should have the correct liblights file already.

Have you tried Ninphetamine kernel yet to see if it works there for you?

Communicated from a Galaxy far far away via an XDA premium quality neurotransmitter.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kingofthebraves:
Not yet but they should work. I've used stock ninphetamine kernel before and there was no problem. The only thing different about my setup now is siyah's kernel which is weird because I'm prolly the only person complaining about this :(

Thanks anyways preciate the help :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
Yeah, should work. I'm on 2.3 as well, I don't use bln myself but I'll do a test for you mate.

Could be good to mention this in Siyah thread as well.

I'm on VR since i had my s2 and had vr3.0 since it was out. Just had a strange problem recently. When trying to connect to wifi, my phone just gets stuck in "obtaining ip address". It would detect the wireless signal (shows wireless icon) but the signal bars are off. Thought might be a kernel problem and flashed an older version of the kernel i use. Did not fix it.

Tried to google the problem and I've seen archived threads pointing to upgrading to newer gingerbread versions. So I re-flashed VR3.0 hoping it would fix it, and it did. I am now able to connect to wifi again.

What caused this and is there a way to fix it without reflashing the ROM?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] urmybaby:
We gonna have a update to KK5 right? because it has 2.3.6 firmware. Is it big enough difference for newer rom? many thanks.

2.3.6 changelog

voice search bug fix

software fixes lockscreen hang bug

security and performance improvements
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
Wifi signals are controlled by the kernel. If I ever had issues with that, I always used to flash back the last kernel when it was working.

Communicated from a Galaxy far far away via an XDA premium quality neurotransmitter.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Entropy512:
Jeez, do people ever think for themselves or do research?

It's CarrierIQ... CARRIER. So maybe its likelihood of being present would depend on your wireless CARRIER? And if your wireless CARRIER or the one your ROM is based off of is in a country with strict privacy laws like the EU (the target market of most I9100 ROM bases), CARRIER IQ might get them assraped by the government?

It's insulting that people keep asking this ****, as if the developers of the ROM might not know they have a CIQ infestation. Trust me - if a ROM base has CIQ, the ROM developer will know if they have a personal IQ greater than 10 and will advertise CarrierIQ removal. If a device has CIQ and the ROM developer does not know, they have no business being a ROM developer. But VillainROM is maintained by a sernior moderator of these forums, don't you think he MIGHT know what he's doing?

Seriously, if you're not using a device that was sold by a North American carrier (In order of likelihood, Sprint (US), Rogers (CA), AT&T (US - only for their latest devices and updates), you're fine.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Moral of the story? If you buy European, generic handsets, you are currently fine. Our carriers have not tried to install keyloggers just yet :p

They can't :) there's an european law regarding the user privacy.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] immeeow:
saw from somewhere or the siyah original post.. if u are using bln.. you are recommanded to flash daluik cache before flashing the kernel.. hope this helps..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kingofthebraves:
I just tried a full wipe and flashed VR3.0, wiped data , cache and dalvik cache and it still doesn't work. On stock everything, tried it on the handcent app and yes I have the BLN app enabled from the market. This hasn't happened before, any help please???
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ReiKo90:
Make it able to go to Recovery mode via power button.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
It doesn't as standard as that's not a stock option. This ROM replicates a stock ROM as much as you're going to get and then allows people to add the tweaks they like.

For your's just install JKay mods or an APM mod which there are plenty.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] immeeow:
after u flashed the rom.. before u flash kernel.. did u wipe dalvik? dalvik only is enough... then flash kernel... double checked siyah's post.. it's stated there... mayb u can take a look there.. at the first post..

hope it helps..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kingofthebraves:
I tried flashing VR 3.0 and CDT from a full wipe of data, cache and dalvik cache didn't do anything else. Downloaded bln and hancent but it still doesn't work. Didn't even try restoring my previous settings and apps.

Everything I've tried doesn't work.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BatTusAi:
Anyone having pink spot problem in our camera on this 3.0 version of villainrom?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Bl@ck:
i do, maybe it got fixed in latest rom 2.3.6 rom.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Nothing to do with the ROM as more than 2 people would've complained about it. It only affects individual phones and was around on stock firmware long ago which again didn't affect all phones.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
Nothing like that here, have you tried reinstalling VR or maybe changing kernels?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Preaching to the wrong choir :rolleyes:

If it was worth updating to Pulsar would've said something by now but as I said in the HyperDroid thread it's only worth updating when something worthwhile is fixed/changed not for the sake of numbers. Anyway no doubt we'll get another release soon being KL as it's December now and 2.3.6 was soon after superseded by 2.3.7 on the Nexus S so will no doubt follow suit here seeing as we're about a few months on the back foot of the Nexus S updates.

Basically, some random person posts moments after me, about the abandoned rom or something... I can only presume that the post took so long to write that he missed what I posted :p I did notice about 4000 MB of pictures showing off some winzip style themed rom. No offence to whoever made it, but it looked like the sort of thing which should be made using a differential theming system like VRTheme or metamorph...

But best of all, his link was broken :p

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Kashban:
I have a problem with Speaker / Ear Speaker after using headphones through the 3,5mm jack:

Not sure how and when this is happening, but generally after using headphones (without mic) the phone does not switch back to the main speaker for rings and media playback but sticks to the ear speaker. Which has a much lesser max volume than the main speaker. Even rebooting the phone won't clear this problem.

Just tried the samsung headset and after removing this, main speaker was online again.

Anybody else experiencing this?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
I think your kernel will provide that for you.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Entropy512:
"home button wake lag fix" - What are you talking about?

There's a home button lag fix, but it has NOTHING to do with wakeup lag. Wakeup lag is fundamental to our device - without completely overhauling suspend/resume dynamics in the kernel it isn't going to change. (in short - it might change in official ICS but don't get your hopes up.)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jobias:
Pulser, as you said you appreciated to be reminded about new android versions.. Apparantly there is a 2.3.6 version online somewhere as LeoMar75 released a 2.3.6 based rom. Just so you know :-D and to make sure, this is not a request for an update :-P still enjoying villainrom :-)

Edit: just noticed this might be very old news.. I saw LeoMar75 updating his rom to 2.3.6 so I figured it was new.. Sorry if I was mistaken..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Yeah I know about it. But 2.3.6 was mostly a security fix for the powervr gpu... Which we don't have :p Hence if I remember correctly, then there's little to gain.

Additionally, I don't feel inclined to update right now, given the proximity of a particular variety of sandwich containing ice cream...
